I know nothing about the sort of drive you're talking about,

If it's interesting to you:

... then look at dmesg output and see ...

Here it is:

At the command prompt:
/<#>mount /dev/hdd /MO

hdd: driver not present
mount: Mounting /dev/hdd on /MO failed: No such device or address
/<#>mount /dev/hdd0 /MO

/<#>mount /dev/hdd1 /MO
hdd: driver not present
hdd: driver not present
mount: Mounting /dev/hdd1 on /MO failed: No such device or address

Then I tried the following kernel:
'ftp://dl.xs4all.nl/pub/mirror/slackware/slackware-7.1/kernels/bare.i/bzimag e'.
Doesn't help (just produces more 'hdd: driver not present' messages).
Occasionally I spotted a module:
'ftp://dl.xs4all.nl/pub/mirror/slackware/slackware-7.1/modules/2.2.16/block/ ide-mod.o'.
Is it the driver? Should I reassemble the kernel (which one?) with this file?
(Supply the instructions, please ...)
Finally, I wrote a driver request message to mo AT fujitsu.com ...

Roman.
